BEES
Bees in Southern Arizona
Bees can also quickly become a problem in your home, workplace, or area. Horn Pest Management works to eliminate the problem while being mindful of the vital role bees play. Horn Pest Management has two removals: Africanized Bees and Honeycomb removal.
Types of Bees in Arizona
Honeybees
Honeybees are the most common type of bee in Arizona. They are important pollinators of native plants, and they produce honey.
Bumble bees
Bumble bees are giant, hairy bees that are important pollinators of native plants.
Cuckoo Bees
Cuckoo Bees are parasitic bees that lay their eggs in the nests of other bees.
Carpenter Bees
Carpenter Bees are giant bees that excavate holes in wood to build their nests.
Sweat Bees
Sweat Bees are small bees that are attracted to human sweat. They can be a nuisance, but they are not dangerous.
Africanized Bees
Africanized Bees are aggressive bees that were introduced to the Americas from Africa. They can be dangerous to humans and animals and should only be removed by a professional. Over time the Africanized Bees have integrated with the Honeybees. It is now fact that all beehives are to be considered Africanized, and the older, more established a hive becomes, the more aggressive the hive is.
Bee Infestation: The Signs
The Removal Process
Africanized Bees: This type of bee is aggressive and can be dangerous to humans and animals. The removal process typically involves using a bee smoker to calm the bees and then using a vacuum to remove them from the area.
Honeycomb: The honeycomb removal process involves removing the honeycomb from the wall or ceiling and then sealing the area to prevent bees from returning. This process is typically only used for small infestations.
After the bee removal is complete, Horn Pest Management will provide you with tips to prevent bees from returning in the future.
